NDS9956A
Dual N-Channel Enhancement Mode Field Effect Transistor
General Description Features
These N-Channel enhancement mode power field effect
transistors are produced using National's proprietary, high
cell density, DMOS technology. This very high density
process is especially tailored to minimize on-state resistance,
provide superior switching performance, and withstand high
energy pulses in the avalanche and commutation modes.
These devices are particularly suited for low voltage
applications such as DC/DC conversion and DC motor
control where fast switching, low in-line power loss, and
resistance to transients are needed.
